Digital assistive technology and accessibility report
We’re often asked what screen readers, assistive technology and accessibility settings are most commonly used. To find out, we surveyed over 1,000 members of the community who are blind or have low vision. These user experience insights have been made public to create a practical reference for anyone designing and building websites apps.
Read the report
“Some of the findings were quite interesting, for example, many native apps don't support Dark Mode but the survey uncovered it is one of the most popular accessibility settings used by the blind and low vision community.”
